Chapter 238 Become a girl!
Harold glanced at his bloodshot eyes and asked with a smile, "Medicine? Have you successfully developed the liquid 'Heart of Jiarang'?"
In Harold's mind, Radu was the most sage among all his students. Radu was inspired by the content about the transformation of material forms in his notes and started studying the liquefaction of gas last month.
His experimental subject was of course the "Heart of Jia Rang" he developed, but Harold knew that under normal pressure, the liquefaction temperature of ethylene was less than minus 100 degrees Celsius. It was difficult to meet such conditions with the current level of technology.
So Haroldt suggested that he could select several more gases as experimental subjects, first study the conditions for gas liquefaction, and hinted that he could start from the direction of temperature and compression volume.
Radu humbly accepted his suggestion and has been trying to liquefy some gases by compression and cooling these days.
When talking about his research, Radu's joy faded a little. He said shyly: "Not yet... It's been so long, but I haven't made any progress at all...
But I have successfully liquefied carbon dioxide, which shows that the compression and cooling methods are effective, but the conditions for liquefying the Heart of Jiarang are more stringent. "
Harold nodded, not surprised by the result.
This is the daily research life of ordinary people in Teyvat. It takes several years or even decades to study the liquefaction of ethylene.
Radu's research progress was too slow, and his research results were unlikely to be used in sea rice. However, Harold did not put pressure on Radu because Ms. Alice gave him a big surprise:
What she donated was not only the oil field in the desert, but also the oil pumps, oil distillation units, and oil cracking units.
When Harold first teleported to the desert through the teleportation anchor, he couldn't help but take a breath when he saw those huge devices. Generous, Ms. Alice is really generous.
She gave him a series of products including petroleum ether, paraffin, asphalt, ethylene, etc., so that he could get the co-solvent, developing agent for thin layer chromatography analysis, and plant hormones he wanted.
Senior Kawi has a new building material that can be used for construction and road waterproofing, as well as a lubricant for mechanical equipment, and the Healthy Home also has new creams and gels.
There are also some energy sources that are very useful on Blue Star, but are very useless in Teyvat and are killed by mineral energy, such as gasoline, kerosene, diesel, and natural gas. They can be given to Radu, Dolly and others to let them develop new uses for these energy sources.
In short, Harold thought of a lot in an instant, and he really had the illusion of stepping from the eighteenth century into the twentieth century.
So this is how you witches do research? This makes us honest scholars look like clowns! Harold laughed at himself.
But Alice only paved the way. They still had to research things like ethylene pipelines and compressors on their own.
Harold knew that the development of ethylene compressors was very difficult, so he initially planned to transport ethylene by pipeline or gas cylinder.
So although he was paying attention to Radu's progress, he never put pressure on him. Now Radu's research progress was faster than he expected.
"So what new medicine have you developed?" Harold asked.
Dixia also looked at Radu curiously. She was very interested in the strange things these scholars were studying.
Radu suddenly realized that he had been overwhelmed by the surprises he had gained from his day-and-night experiments and research, and had not yet mentioned his new discovery to his teacher. He immediately explained:
"A potion that can turn males into females."
Desiya:?
Harold:?
What did you research?
So you are also a Trisolaran?
Harold complained in his heart, you really have the qualities of a great sage, my hometown needs talents like you. With you and your inventions, those tens of millions of bachelors can be absorbed internally.
Seeing that neither of them spoke, Radu thought about what he had just said and quickly added:
"No! That's not what I meant! I said I invented a drug that inhibits the development of stamens and promotes the development of pistils during the 'sexual period' of plants!"
He stuttered a little because he spoke too fast and excitedly.
Radu: "I mixed it with 'Jia Rang's Heart' and other medicines recorded in the notebook. In addition to controlling the gender of plant flowers, it also has the effect of promoting growth, so I call it 'Jia Rang's Benefit'!"
"It sounds too much like 'Blessing of Abundance'!" said Dixia.
After Radu's explanation, her perception of the potion changed from "anti-human" to "very valuable".
Harold felt the same way, and this explanation made sense.
It can regulate the sex of some plant flowers and has the function of promoting growth... The most likely thing Ladu prepared is "ethephon",
If he continues his research, he will find that this drug can promote plant dwarfing and enhance plant resistance...
Really... I was shocked when I heard something like "turn males into females". I thought Teyvat would achieve freedom of gender selection so soon.
"Bring your lab report book next time you report your progress," Haroldt said.
Radu scratched his head in embarrassment. "Just now, I was thinking about using this potion on the teacher's cheating flower, and I didn't pay attention and said something wrong -
Teacher, please allow me to use your Pianpian Flower for an experiment. This kind of elemental biological plant, I guess, is in the bisexual stage when it is just born, but the "Jia Rang Zhi Hui" is somewhat irritating,
At that time, they may be too fragile to withstand the medicinal properties, but as long as we find the right time to spray 'Jia Rang Zhi Hui', we can artificially adjust the gender of the flowers!
Teacher, didn’t you say that the female flowers of the lily of the valley have a certain probability of dying after bearing fruit? Moreover, the nectar of the female flowers does not contain pollen, so it is very suitable for people who are allergic to pollen.
I think increasing the number of female flowers will be beneficial to the teacher's research. Although it may cause the death of some young flowers in the early stage, once my research is successful, I will be able to make up for these losses through the cultivation of flowers soon. "
Haroldt raised the corner of his mouth: "Your eloquence has also improved a lot."
They will all paint a rosy picture for your mentor.
Dixia replied carelessly: "Yes, it is completely different from when I first came here."
Radu smirked twice and looked at Haroldt with burning eyes, his eyes full of expectation: "Teacher, do you agree?!"
Harold smiled and nodded: "Go and try it, you can use those young bodies at will, and you can let Dixia complete some operations for you.
You are not the holder of the Eye of God. Long-term contact with elemental creatures will cause irreversible damage to your body. Remember to turn on the video when conducting experiments. I am very interested in your research. "
Dixia said quickly: "Leave it to me, but you have to tell me the details of the process. The more detailed the better. Don't make it too simple! If you make it too simple, I may not understand."
His new topic was approved so quickly, and his supervisor expressed in words that he was optimistic about this research. Radu stood there in surprise. He could hardly believe that happiness came so quickly.
After realizing what was happening, he immediately promised with a serious face that he would do it.
